In which I will be keeping track (for my own benefit) of my daily progress in the identification of the ant fauna of Tiputini Biodiversity Station in Ecuador, the analysis of that data, and the pursuit of my PhD. And (for the benefit of everyone else) I hope to provide helpful information on ants, taxonomy, database management, identification, and other assorted endeavors. Cheers

Volume 10 brings about some changes, aimed at further increasing the awareness of our journal in the international community: we have changed the journal’s name, widened its scope (i.e., now accept manuscripts on any ant topic from any part of the globe), and enlarged the Advisory Board. But two significant aims for the near future remain, an Online Early version and application for inclusion of the journal in the Web of Science. Find details on all this and more in the Editorial of volume 10 at http://www.oegef.at/Editorial.pdf
